Your Excellency

Her Excellency
the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean, C.C., C.M.M., C.O.M., C.D.
Governor General of Canada

I am very disappointed in your decision to allow Prime Minister Harper to frustrate parliament’s chance to debate its confidence in the current government. Your consent to prorogue, far from being circumspect, has robbed our democratically elected officials of their opportunity to weigh legitimate concerns over the unmitigated partisanship and demagogue which has already dominated this incredibly young government.

It is growing increasingly evident that the Canadian tradition of ruling through plurality of the House of Commons is antiquated. This practice exacerbates the alienation already present in our first-past-the-post electoral system by further misrepresenting the will of the Canadian populous. I implore of you to consider permitting a coalition government to proceed if parliament continues to find no confidence in the sitting government upon their return in January.
